This item is in  near Mint Condition.  This knife has absolutely beautiful  and well matched Sambar stag.  The blade is also really nice. There is a small bit of carbon spotting in the etching between Trail and Guide. You can see this detail in the photos.  Comes with a Excellent sheath and the old green cardboard knife. The box shows some storage and handling wear. Probably the last year of production for the old Trail Guide model.
